som sluttsekvenser og enhetene med formel (VII) tilfeldig kombi-nert med enhetene (VIII) as end sequences and the units of formula (VII) randomly combined with the units (VIII)
som midtsekvenser er beskrevet i finsk patentsøknad 83.2405. as middle sequences are described in Finnish patent application 83.2405.
Absorberbare kirurgiske anordninger i de ovennevnte opp-finnelser er gjerne plater som er festet til ben med skruer, sylindriske medisinske nagler eller tilsvarende strukturer som er fremstilt ved å smelte absorberbar polymer og ved å støpe eller presse smeiten til den passende form. De mekaniske styr-ker av slike prøver som er fremstilt ved smeltebehandlingstek-nikker har gjerne samme størrelsesorden som slike fra' andre lignende syntetiske polymerer. Følgelig har strekkfastheten av tørre, ikke-hydrolyserte prøver fremstilt fra PBA, PLA, PHB og PGA/PLA gjerne størrelsesorden 40-80 MPa (se f.eks. Kulkarni, R.K, Moore, E.G., Hegyeli, A.F. og Fred, L., J. Biomed. Mater. Res., 1971, 5, 169, Vert, M., Chabot, F. og Leray, J., Makromol. Chem., Suppl., 1981, 5, 30, Christel, P., Chabot, F., Leray, J.L., Morin, C. og Vert, M., i Biomaterials (Eds. G.D. Winter, D.F.Gibbons og H. Plenk, Jr.), Wiley (1980), s. 271, Tune, D.C., Transactions of 9th Annual Meeting of the Society for Biomaterials, Birmingham, U.S.A., 1983, s. 47, Howells, E.R. Chem.Ind., 1982, 7.509) Absorbable surgical devices in the above-mentioned inventions are often plates that are attached to bones with screws, cylindrical medical nails or similar structures that are produced by melting absorbable polymer and by molding or pressing the melt into the appropriate shape. The mechanical strengths of such samples produced by melt processing techniques are often of the same order of magnitude as those from other similar synthetic polymers. Accordingly, the tensile strength of dry, non-hydrolyzed samples prepared from PBA, PLA, PHB and PGA/PLA is often in the order of 40-80 MPa (see, e.g., Kulkarni, R.K, Moore, E.G., Hegyeli, A.F. and Fred, L., J. Biomed. Mater. Res., 1971, 5, 169, Vert, M., Chabot, F. and Leray, J., Makromol. Chem., Suppl., 1981, 5, 30, Christel, P., Chabot , F., Leray, J.L., Morin, C. and Vert, M., in Biomaterials (Eds. G.D. Winter, D.F.Gibbons and H. Plenk, Jr.), Wiley (1980), p. 271, Tune, D.C., Transactions of 9th Annual Meeting of the Society for Biomaterials, Birmingham, U.S.A., 1983, p. 47, Howells, E.R. Chem.Ind., 1982, 7.509)
Strekkfastheten som er gitt ovenfor er moderate sammen-lignet med strekkfasthetene hos kompakt ben (ca. 80-200 MPa) . The tensile strength given above is moderate compared to the tensile strengths of compact bone (approx. 80-200 MPa).
I tillegg er smeltebehandlede homogene polymerprøver av ovennevnte polymerer i flere tilfeller sprø eller for bøyelige til å anvendes for benkirurgiformål. Derfor har den vanlige anven-delse av resorberbare polymerer i benkirurgi møtt på alvorlige vanskeligheter. In addition, melt-treated homogeneous polymer samples of the above-mentioned polymers are in several cases brittle or too flexible to be used for bone surgery purposes. Therefore, the common use of resorbable polymers in bone surgery has encountered serious difficulties.
Den mekaniske begynnelsesstyrken til kirurgiske absorberbare osteosyntesematerialer er blitt forbedret ved å anvende i absorberbare polymere matriser absorberbare fibre med høyere smeltepunkt enn selve matrisen som forsterkningsenheter (f. eks. polylaktidmatrisse forsterket med polyglykolidfibre i US patent nr. 4.279.249). Også biostabile karbonfibre har vært brukt som forsterkningsenheter. Når den kjemiske strukturen eller elementsammensetningen av forsterkningsenhetene adskiller seg fra matrisematerialets, kan materialene som regel ikke danne sterke kjemiske primære eller sekundære bindinger mellom hverandre, hvilket fører til dårlig feste mellom materialbe-standdelene. The initial mechanical strength of surgical absorbable osteosynthesis materials has been improved by using in absorbable polymeric matrices absorbable fibers with a higher melting point than the matrix itself as reinforcement units (e.g. polylactide matrix reinforced with polyglycolide fibers in US patent no. 4,279,249). Biostable carbon fibers have also been used as reinforcement units. When the chemical structure or elemental composition of the reinforcement units differs from that of the matrix material, the materials usually cannot form strong chemical primary or secondary bonds between each other, which leads to poor attachment between the material components.
Adhesjonspromotorer, såsom silaner eller titanater osv., som normalt anvendes i polymere forsterkere sammensetninger, Adhesion promoters, such as silanes or titanates, etc., which are normally used in polymeric reinforcing compositions,
kan ikke anvendes i kirurgiske materialer som er ment brukt i kirurgi på grunn av deres toksisitet. Derfor er det vanskelig å oppnå god adhesjon mellom matrise og forsterkningsenheter av forskjellig kjemisk opprinnelse. cannot be used in surgical materials intended for use in surgery due to their toxicity. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve good adhesion between matrix and reinforcement units of different chemical origin.
Oppfinnelsen er h6vedsakelig karakterisert ved at osteosyntesematerialet eller komponenten av osteosyntesematerialet har en selvforsterket struktur, d.v.s. det består i det minste av én matrise, som består av absorberende polymer eller kopolymer og har som forsterkning absorberende fibre med tilsvarende kjemisk struktur. Det skal også bemerkes at matrisen og forsterkningsenhetene som har den samme kjemiske element-prosentdel-sammensetning også kan være isomerer, hvilket betyr at matrisen og forsterkningsenhetene har konfigurasjoner som adskiller seg fra hverandre. The invention is essentially characterized in that the osteosynthesis material or the component of the osteosynthesis material has a self-reinforced structure, i.e. it consists of at least one matrix, which consists of absorbent polymer or copolymer and has as reinforcement absorbent fibers with a similar chemical structure. It should also be noted that the matrix and reinforcement units having the same chemical element-percentage composition may also be isomers, meaning that the matrix and reinforcement units have configurations that differ from each other.
Oppfinnelsen vedrører selvforsterket absorberbare polymere. The invention relates to self-reinforced absorbable polymers.
kirurgiske osteosyntesematerialer som har jevn kjemisk element-struktur og som derfor har god adhesjon mellom matrisse og forsterkningselementer. Derfor har materialet utmerket mekaniske begynnelsesstyrke-egenskaper såsom høystrekkfasthet, bøy- og skjærstyrke og seighet, og derfor kan dette materialet med hell anvendes i kirurgisk absorberbare osteosynteseanordninger eller som komponenter eller deler av slike anordninger såsom osteo-synte~seplater som er festet til ben med skruer, som festeskruer, som margnagler eller som komponenter (plater, staver eller sten-ger ) av slike osteosynteseanordninger som er beskrevet i finsk patent 61402. surgical osteosynthesis materials which have a uniform chemical element structure and which therefore have good adhesion between matrix and reinforcement elements. Therefore, the material has excellent initial mechanical strength properties such as high tensile strength, bending and shear strength and toughness, and therefore this material can be successfully used in surgically absorbable osteosynthesis devices or as components or parts of such devices such as osteosynthesis plates attached to bone with screws, as fastening screws, as core nails or as components (plates, rods or rods) of such osteosynthesis devices as are described in Finnish patent 61402.
Selvforsterkning betyr at polymermatrisen er forsterket med forsterkningsenhetene (såsom fibre) som har den samme kjemiske prosentuelle elementsammensetning som matrisen har. Ved å anvende selvforsterkningsprinsippet kan den høye strekkfasthet (gjerne 500-900 MPa) av fibre utnyttes effektivt ved fremstilling av makroskopiske prøver. Når sterkt orienterte fiberstrukturer er bundet sammen med polymermatrisen som har den samme kjemiske elementsammensetning som fibrene, oppnås den sammensatte struktur som har utmerket adhesjon mellom matrise og forsterkningsenheter og derfor også fremragende mekaniske egenskaper. Self-reinforcement means that the polymer matrix is reinforced with the reinforcing units (such as fibers) that have the same chemical percentage element composition as the matrix. By applying the self-reinforcing principle, the high tensile strength (preferably 500-900 MPa) of fibers can be used effectively in the production of macroscopic samples. When strongly oriented fiber structures are bonded together with the polymer matrix which has the same chemical element composition as the fibers, the composite structure is obtained which has excellent adhesion between matrix and reinforcement units and therefore also excellent mechanical properties.
Den vedlagte tegning viser skjematisk strukturen av materialet i denne oppfinnelse hvor den absorberbare polymere matrise er forsterket med de absorberbare fibre. The attached drawing schematically shows the structure of the material in this invention where the absorbable polymeric matrix is reinforced with the absorbable fibres.
Fremgangsmåten er hovedsakelig karakterisert ved at den del av materialet som vil danne matrisen utsettes for varme og/eller, trykk på slik måte at den fysikalske tilstand til den del av materialet som vil virke som matrisefase muliggjør ut-vikling av adhesjon mellom de nærliggende forsterkningsenheter og matrisen . The method is mainly characterized by the part of the material that will form the matrix being exposed to heat and/or pressure in such a way that the physical state of the part of the material that will act as the matrix phase enables the development of adhesion between the nearby reinforcement units and the matrix.
Det er alternative metoder som kan anvendes i fremstillingen av .selvforsterkede absorberbare osteosyntesematerialer i denne oppfinnelse. En fremgangsmåte er å blande finmalt polymerpulver med fibre, tråder eller tilsvarende forsterkningsenheter som fremstilles av det samme materialet eller av dets isomer med den samme .kjemiske prosentuelle elementsammensetning og oppvarme blandingen under slike betingelser og ved bruk av slike temperaturer at de finmalte partikler mykner eller smeltes, men forsterkningsenhetsstrukturene ikke myknes eller smeltes nevneverdig. Når en slik blanding presses til den riktige form, danner de myknede eller smeltede partikler matrisefasen som binder forsterkningsenheten sammen, og når denne struktur avkjøles, oppnås en selvforsterket blanding med fremragende adhesjon og mekaniske egenskaper. There are alternative methods that can be used in the production of self-reinforced absorbable osteosynthesis materials in this invention. One method is to mix finely ground polymer powder with fibres, threads or equivalent reinforcement units produced from the same material or from its isomer with the same chemical percentage element composition and heat the mixture under such conditions and using such temperatures that the finely ground particles soften or melt , but the reinforcement unit structures do not soften or melt significantly. When such a mixture is pressed into the correct shape, the softened or melted particles form the matrix phase that binds the reinforcement unit together, and when this structure cools, a self-reinforced mixture with excellent adhesion and mechanical properties is obtained.
Den selvforsterkede struktur i oppfinnelsen oppnås også The self-reinforced structure of the invention is also achieved
ved å kombinere smeiten av en absorberbar polymer og fibre, tråder eller tilsvarende forsterkningsenheter av det samme materialet, forme blandingen av den polymere smelte og forsterkningsenhetene til den ønskede form, og avkjøle det formede polymere sammensatte materialet så raskt at forsterkningsenheten ikke nevneverdig mister sin innvendige orienterte struktur. by combining the melt of an absorbable polymer and fibers, threads or similar reinforcement units of the same material, forming the mixture of the polymeric melt and the reinforcement units into the desired shape, and cooling the formed polymeric composite material so rapidly that the reinforcement unit does not significantly lose its internally oriented structure.
Man kan også fremstille det selvforsterkede absorberbare materialet i oppfinnelsen ved å oppvarme absorberbare fibre, tråder eller tilsvarende strukturer i en presset form under slike omstendigheter at i det minste en del av disse strukturene delvis mykner eller smeltes på overflaten. Under trykk koalise-res de myknede eller smeltede overflater av fiber, tråder eller tilsvarende strukturer sammen, og når støpen avkjøles, oppnås en selvforsterket sammensatt struktur. Ved omhyggelig kontroll av oppvarmingsbetingelsene er det mulig å behandle sammensatte prøver hvor de myknede eller smeltede overflateområder av fiber, tråder eller tilsvarende enheter er meget tynne, og derfor er andelen av orientert fiberstruktur meget høy, hvilket fører til materialer med høye strekkfasthets-, skjær-, bøy- og s 1 agbestandig-hetsverdier. One can also produce the self-reinforced absorbable material in the invention by heating absorbable fibers, threads or similar structures in a pressed form under such circumstances that at least part of these structures partially softens or melts on the surface. Under pressure, the softened or melted surfaces of fibers, threads or similar structures are coalesced together, and when the casting cools, a self-reinforced composite structure is obtained. By carefully controlling the heating conditions, it is possible to process composite samples where the softened or melted surface areas of fibers, threads or similar units are very thin, and therefore the proportion of oriented fiber structure is very high, which leads to materials with high tensile strength, shear , bending and s 1 ag resistance values.
De ovennevnte fremstillingsprinsipper kan anvendes når de selvforsterkede, absorberbare materialer fremstilles ved sats-prosesser (såsom kompresjonsstøpning og overføringsstøpning) eller ved kontinuerlige prosesser (såsom injeksjonsstøpning eller ekstrusjon eller pultrusjon). The above manufacturing principles can be used when the self-reinforced, absorbable materials are manufactured by batch processes (such as compression molding and transfer molding) or by continuous processes (such as injection molding or extrusion or pultrusion).
Typiske egenskaper for materialene i denne oppfinnelse er det høye innhold av orienterte fibre bundet sammen med tynne matrisepolymersjikt mellom fibrene, lav porøsitet, glatt og kompakt overflate, hvilke egenskaper alle oppnås som en følge av anvendelsen av trykk og eventuelt også varme under fremstillingen av materialet. Gode innvendige adhesjonsegenskaper i forbindelse med de ovenfornevnte fordelaktige strukturelle faktorer gir materialet utmerkede mekaniske styrkeegenskaper såsom høy strekkfasthet, bøystyrke, kompresjonsstyrke eller slagbestandighet. Typical properties of the materials in this invention are the high content of oriented fibers bound together with thin matrix polymer layers between the fibers, low porosity, smooth and compact surface, which properties are all achieved as a result of the application of pressure and possibly also heat during the production of the material. Good internal adhesion properties in connection with the above-mentioned advantageous structural factors give the material excellent mechanical strength properties such as high tensile strength, bending strength, compression strength or impact resistance.
Det er selvfølgelig at det selvforsterkede absorberbare kirurgiske materialet i tillegg til matrisse og forsterknings-enhetpolymer om nødvendig kan inneholde additiver såsom farver, pulverlignende fyllmidler eller andre additiver. It is of course that the self-reinforced absorbable surgical material, in addition to the matrix and reinforcing unit polymer, may if necessary contain additives such as dyes, powder-like fillers or other additives.
De selvforsterkede materialer i oppfinnelsen kan anvendes The self-reinforced materials in the invention can be used
i osteosynteseimplantasjoner såsom kirurgiske anordninger eller som deres bestanddeler i form av-plater, stifter, nagler, marg-staver, skruer eller i form av andre tredimensjonale faststoffer. Materialet kan også i det minste danne en del av en osteosyntese-implantas jon. Det er naturlig at i det minste delvis absorberbare matrise og/eller forsterkningsenheter kan inneholde slike additiver som farver, antioksydanter, plastifiseringsmidler, smøremidler, fyllmidler osv. , som er nødvendige ved behandlin-gen av materialet eller for å modifisere dets egenskaper eller egenskapene til matrisen og/eller forsterkningsenheten. in osteosynthesis implants such as surgical devices or as their components in the form of plates, pins, rivets, marrow rods, screws or in the form of other three-dimensional solids. The material can also at least form part of an osteosynthesis implant. It is natural that at least partially absorbable matrix and/or reinforcement units may contain such additives as colors, antioxidants, plasticizers, lubricants, fillers, etc., which are necessary in the treatment of the material or to modify its properties or the properties of the matrix and/or the amplification unit.
Når det selvforsterkende materialet anvendes som en del When the self-reinforcing material is used as a part
av en kirurgisk plate, stift, stav osv. kan den selvforsterkede struktur danne f.eks. kjernen i anordningen og overflaten av anordningen kan fremstilles fra andre materialer. På denne måten kan de utmerkede mekaniske egenskapene til det selvforsterkede materialet kombineres med egenskaper av andre absorberbare materialer (såsom langsom absorpsjonshastighet). of a surgical plate, pin, rod, etc., the self-reinforced structure can form e.g. the core of the device and the surface of the device can be made from other materials. In this way, the excellent mechanical properties of the self-reinforced material can be combined with properties of other absorbable materials (such as slow absorption rate).
Det selvforsterkede materialet i oppfinnelsen kan også anvendes på flere andre måter i kombinasjon med andre absorberbare eller andre biostabile materialer. F.eks. kan de mekaniske egenskapene til selvforsterket materiale modifiseres ved å innstøpe absorberbare forsterkningsenheter med andre hydrolyt-tiske egenskaper i det enn det selvforsterkede materialets. Sammensetninger med utmerkede mekaniske egenskaper oppnås også når hybride sammensetninger og selvforsterkede materialer med biostabile fibre (såsom karbonfibre) fremstilles. The self-reinforced material in the invention can also be used in several other ways in combination with other absorbable or other biostable materials. E.g. the mechanical properties of self-reinforced material can be modified by embedding absorbable reinforcement units with different hydrolytic properties than those of the self-reinforced material. Composites with excellent mechanical properties are also achieved when hybrid composites and self-reinforced materials with biostable fibers (such as carbon fibers) are produced.

Suturene ble delvis smeltet sammen og støpet ble avkjølt raskt til romtemperatur. Selvforsterkede absorberbare staver med skjærfasthet på 110 MPa erholdtes. Skjærstyrken av tilsvarende forsterkede staver fremstilt fra fullstendig smeltede Maxon suturer var 60 MPa. Monofilament sutures (size 0) made from polyglycolide/trimethylene carbonate copolymer (Maxon from Davis + Geck) were produced in a cylindrical pressure mold (length 50 mm, diameter 3.2 mm) at 180°C for 8 minutes at a pressure of 2000 bar. The sutures were partially fused and the cast was cooled rapidly to room temperature. Self-reinforced absorbable rods with a shear strength of 110 MPa were obtained. The shear strength of similarly reinforced rods made from fully fused Maxon sutures was 60 MPa.
